My mother who works for a big fish in the atl medical industry and called in favors for him. Then he saw a the specialist the next day.
They gave him 3 to 6 months now he is going strong almost a year and half now but he owes that time to my mother who has been a pit bull for him. If he didnt have a wife with the connections she has and the ability to get in peoples faces.He would of been screwed.
This is all with medical insurance isnt it great.
